Since the sandstorm in China, Japan has also experienced sandstorm weather. How are sandstorms formed?

In recent years, the increasingly fierce sandstorm was formed by Siberian wasteland and wind, which swept through many places in China, such as Beijing, and was repeatedly attacked by sandstorms. However, this sandstorm actually crossed the ocean and affected the island country of Japan. So what are the black hands behind this dusty weather?

First, meteorological conditions.

The so-called meteorological conditions, that is, the atmosphere has strong thermal instability, which produces strong winds in the boundary layer, blows up dust, is transported to higher air by updraft, and then is "transported" to distant areas by low-level jet. In addition, global warming and abnormal climate are also contributing factors in recent years.

Second, material conditions.

There are three main sources of Asian sandstorms: the desert and Gobi in southern Mongolia, and the high-dusty desert in western China with Taklimakan desert as the main body. These places provide a lot of sand, which is surrounded by strong westerly winds and affects neighboring countries.

The sandstorm weather in Japan is fierce, which is the first time in Japan since 1967, affecting a large area and seriously affecting traffic. However, it is incorrect for some malicious people to blame China for this dusty weather. China has been committed to desert control, and has achieved considerable results. Moreover, China is also the victim of this large-scale sandstorm. China has no obligation to bear some trumped-up charges.

Faced with this situation, we should unite to fight against severe weather such as sand and dust, increase the green area, improve the vegetation coverage, establish shelter belts, and control sand and dust from the source.
